Excerpt:
Killer Mike, Cory Gunz, Jim Jones, Joell Ortiz are just a few of the rappers that show up to bring their A-game to assist the relative unknown. It would be easy for someone like J.Y. to get lost in the mix, but his distinctive voice (it has a deep, gravelly voice that reminds you of The Game) and slick wordplay makes this project all J.Y.’s.
Hiphopdx.com did an featured J.Y. in their DX Next section about new Hip Hop artists and upcoming rappers.
Excerpt:
Although his father worked with one of Hip Hop’s most beloved groups, JY started his career with only a simple tape-recorder. Void of the carefully produced beats, star-studded features, and developed flow that he now has this New Jersey emcee began rapping at the age of six just so he could hear himself. By the time he was a teenager, he made up his mind that he wanted to rhyme, and after taking it seriously for the last few years JY is working on his second project due out before Christmas of this year.
In this episode of Good*Fella Radio “Hip-Hop Series” we caught up with Jersey’s own “JY”. We discussed how he feels coming up in the game and being from New Jersey. He also discussed his parents influence in his music, and his father passing away. We wrapped up the interview by discussing future projects, and JY gaves us some fresh bars at the end. – Goodfellamedia.com
